Viewing Notes
Almost a game time decision I took in the late screening of Where The Wild Things Are at Showcase 12. In seat 10 minutes early and was only person in the theater! A few more people came in but even more shocking were the 2 couples that left the viewing halfway thru. WTF?! You paid $10/ticket and walk out? I guess some people only want bullshit mainstream garbage. As for WTWTA, I really dug it yet lack the words to articulate. Damn amazing. Maybe the biggest budget “art” flick to date. Wish they used less obvious voice actors. Really, really hard to get past Tony Soprano.
